Lysosomes are membrane - bound organelles that contain digestive enzymes. These enzymes are used to break down (digest) various substances such as invaders (like viruses, bacteria) and other materials (such as worn - out cell components). Option B is incorrect because lysosomes do not transport substances out of the cell (that is more of the function of vesicles involved in exocytosis). Option C is wrong as lysosomes do not steal energy; mitochondria are more related to energy production (ATP synthesis). Option D is incorrect because lysosomes do not produce toxins to poison the cell.
